An exciting next chapter for Chastain Park begins with a new way to get there.
The realignment of the road leading to the Conservancy office and Farm Chastain is the first step toward establishing access to the Palisades—our planned 30-acre “park within the park.” This work will help create more opportunities to explore nature and enjoy Chastain’s quieter spaces.
The new alignment will provide safer access to PATH parking, the Conservancy office and Farm Chastain, along with a dedicated pedestrian path. It will also prepare the way for visitors to reach the future Palisades. The existing road will be returned to fairway, enhancing the golf experience while improving access for the broader park community.
The Palisades will feature a one-mile woodland trail, pollinator gardens, peaceful greenspaces and a pedestrian bridge over Nancy Creek. Stormwater improvements, invasive-plant management, native planting and more than 500 new trees will help restore and care for this special landscape.
Stay connected with the Conservancy for details about the official Palisades groundbreaking celebration and additional project updates. We look forward to celebrating this next chapter with you!
A naming opportunity for the new road is also available. To learn more, schedule a project tour or explore ways to support the project, please contact Rosa McHugh at rosa@chastainparkconservancy.org or 678-575-1094.
